Can you define Success?  Can you write your success on paper today?  Can you define what next month's success is for your messy life?

For the first time in 3 years I sat pen to paper and wrote my successes for the last week, the last month and forward thinking, for the month to come!

I've been stuck, I've lived in survival mode for 3+ years and I couldn't define success until..... until I finally got through the mess to success!

Feeling stuck after a major life disruption — divorce, debt, illness, or just the slow burn of burnout? The Messy to Momentum Session is a 90-minute 1:1 coaching intensive designed to help midlife women cut through the chaos and get moving again. We'll get clear on where you are, what's blocking you, and the exact next step to rebuild your business momentum. Book your session at the link below.

Known for being the calm in the chaos, she helps women see their patterns, have powerful AHA moments, and move from simply knowing what to do to actually living it. Her work is rooted in her own transformation, and she’s passionate about helping women stop chasing and start attracting a life that truly feels good.

There is a quiet, devastating thunder that rolls through a woman’s life when she finds herself in her mid-40's living through devastating life loss and messiness.  Maybe the marriage is over. And then everything falls apart from there, is it falling apart or falling back together?It starts as an unraveling—a slow, painful loosening of every thread you spent decades weaving into the fabric of "us." Suddenly, you find yourself unmoored, drifting in a sea of "what now?" while the world expects you to just keep moving.In this episode, we sit in the raw, unsupported spaces of the early descent—those heavy nights where you felt unseen in your own bed and unprepared for the silence of an empty house. We navigate the messy, unending middle, where the friction of legal battles and "gray divorce" can leave you feeling unworthy of a life you always dreamed of.But most importantly, we feel a little spark, we know we were made for more!This is a love letter to the woman who is unfolding, finding her voice, and realizing that she is not broken—she is finally, beautifully untethered. You aren't losing your life; you are reclaiming the one you were always meant to live. Join me through this journeyof rebuilding, starting over,  turning  from the grief of being unheard, of being unrecognizable to the power of becoming completely unapologetic and unstoppable. Building beautiful businesses and beautiful lives through our messes.

Sometimes life makes the decision for you. The relationship ends. The money runs out. The phone rings and nothing is ever the same. In this episode, Missy shares the No Choice Theory — and why the women who move fastest through a crisis are the ones who stop fighting what already is and start asking what they're going to build from here.

We love the idea that change is always chosen. But a lot of the time — if we're being honest — it wasn't. Life forced the door closed. And standing at that closed door wondering if it will open again is costing you the future you're meant to build.

In today's episode, Missy introduces the No Choice Theory — and the unexpected gift hidden inside your hardest, most unchosen season.

In this episode:

• Why no-choice moments can actually accelerate your rebuilding
• The question that changes everything: not "why did this happen" but "what do I build from here"
• How to stop standing at the closed door and find the open one
• Why your unchosen season might produce your most powerful work

What if the hardest thing you ever lost wasn't your marriage, your money, or your home—but yourself?

In this raw conversation, Dhylles Victoria shares how narcissistic abuse slowly erased her identity, leaving her questioning her own reality. Her story is proof that healing begins the moment you decide to believe yourself again.

Can you lose everything without losing a single possession?

For Dhylles Victoria, the greatest loss wasn't financial. It wasn't a home, a career, or material things.

It was her identity.

In this powerful episode of the Messie Missy Podcast's "I Lost Everything…" series, Dhylles shares the painful reality of surviving a narcissistic abusive relationship that slowly convinced her she couldn't trust her own thoughts, memories, or instincts. What began as love turned into manipulation, gaslighting, and emotional control that left her questioning who she was.

Together, Melissa and Dhylles unpack what narcissistic abuse really looks like, why so many people don't recognize it while they're living through it, and the enormous courage it takes to walk away and rebuild.

In this episode you'll discover:

• Why losing yourself can be even more devastating than losing possessions.
• The subtle warning signs of narcissistic abuse and gaslighting.
• How manipulation causes you to question your own reality.
• The emotional and financial cost of staying too long.
• What healing actually looks like after leaving an abusive relationship.
• How to begin trusting yourself again.

If you've ever felt like you've disappeared inside a relationship, questioned your own reality, or wondered if you'll ever feel like yourself again, this conversation will remind you that your identity can be rebuilt.

Because sometimes the greatest comeback isn't getting your life back.

It's getting yourself back.

On this episode of the Messy Missy Podcast, Melissa dives into one phrase she kept hearing over and over again from women rebuilding their lives:

“Give yourself grace.”

But for a woman raised to avoid failure, avoid messes, and hold everything together… what does that even mean?

Melissa opens up about hitting midlife completely flattened by life and realizing she had never learned how to move through setbacks with compassion. Instead, she learned pressure. Perfectionism. Shame. Performance.

Through raw storytelling and honest reflection, this episode explores:

• why women struggle to receive grace from themselves
• how shame keeps women stuck in survival mode
• the difference between accountability and self-punishment
• rebuilding while still grieving
• learning to see yourself through love instead of criticism

This isn’t about excusing bad choices or pretending life is easy.

It’s about understanding that rebuilding requires room to breathe.

Grace is allowing yourself to be unfinished while still believing your life is worth rebuilding.

Building beautiful businesses and beautiful lives through our messes.

Cori Close once said — "uncommon, courageous women willing to make uncommon choices that maybe possibly can yield an uncommon result."

That quote stopped Messie Missy in her tracks. Because that is exactly who this podcast is for.

In this short but powerful monologue episode, Messie Missy ties that quote directly to the mission of the Messie Missy Podcast — helping midlife women build beautiful businesses through their messes. Businesses that are scalable, that offer time freedom and financial freedom, and that give you a real exit strategy from the corporate cubicle.

The question is simple: are you willing to make the uncommon choice?

Has your mess caused so much chaos in your head and your heart that you don't know how to make an uncommon choice?

Has your mess caused you to be fearful instead of courageous?

That's EXACTLY why I created the Messy to Momentum Session!  I've been there but I stayed stuck there for years and now you don't have to!

Week 9 of building my personal brand… and nothing looks like it’s working.

No sales. No engagement. No real traction.

In this episode, I’m sharing the part of rebuilding that no one talks about—the quiet phase where you’re showing up, doing the work, and seeing no visible results.

I open up about what it feels like to build something new while carrying the weight of past loss, why certain seasons (like May) can bring unexpected emotional setbacks, and the pressure of feeling “behind” years after your life fell apart.

I also share what is happening beneath the surface—from identity shifts to mental resilience—and why this invisible progress matters more than early results.

If you’re a woman rebuilding after divorce, burnout, loss, or a major life transition, this episode will remind you that you’re not failing—you’re in the phase most people quit.

And this is where momentum actually begins.

Building beautiful businesses and beautiful lives through our messes.
